Basicly the same as the A-7A (kit 87201) with a new fuselarge sprue.

Makings for the

353rd TFG 254th TFW Thailand 1972 ( the colour plan shows it with a laser pod under the nose which at the time it did not have )

"Scrappy" 162nd TFS 178th TFG Ohio ANG (This aircraft was fitted with the ECM faring behind the main landing gear (kit part E38)

It has NO decals for the cockpit but they have decals for the bombs.

It may seem the I am picky (or worse a rivet counter) I am not.

I find it strange that they go to the expence and trouble a good kit and they stuff up on the little things (like laser pods and ECM faring ( also see post on the A-7A and TA-7C), Which thankfuly they include with the kit any way)
